According to reports, she was voluntarily taken to the hospital for a mental health evaluation after the incident on Thursday morning. Police and firefighters were called to the scene after being told that there was a potential jumper or overdose.

Mischa was spotted wearing just a dress shirt and tie at the time.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time that Mischa Barton has suffered from mental health concerns as back in 2009, she was sectioned for two weeks after a psychiatrist was concerned that she was a danger to herself or others.

At the time, she commented that “if they feel you are depressed or a danger to yourself they can hold you on a 5150. I am terrified of needles and they wanted to pump me full of drugs and I said, ‘No, absolutely not. I don’t want to be here” and got into a fight with the nurses, and that led to my 5150”.

A 5150 is a Californian law which allows psychiatrists to involuntarily confine a person.
